September 22, 2013

Weekly Greetings!
I hope you enjoyed the extra day with your child on Monday. Last week flew by, and due to many needed interruptions concerning TB testing and the 2nd grade MAP testing among other things, so I did not get a chance to relax and snap pictures during the week. This week the teacher in-service will make for a short week in the classroom, but there will still be a Spelling test for the 1st and 2nd graders on Friday. Listed below are some guidelines for you to help your child study the weekly list that will go home nightly.
Have them:
 1. LOOK at the word.
2. SAY the word.
3. STUDY the letters in the word.
4. WRITE the word.
 Also, be sure to read the special letter that will be sent with my weekly letter that explains the concepts covered for the week.  In addition, there will be grade level readers for you to help them read throughout the week. They can keep those at home to reread and practice.
With the colder weather, please remember to send your child with warm clothes and shoes. Occasionally, I would like to take the class outside to do special things but a number of students are not really dressed for a longer time out of the building.
On Friday, we will be having Show and Tell and I encourage you to help your child find something to share about and bring it in there "All About Me" bag.
Stay well and have a safe week.
